# Set the '''Password''' to you AAISP password - as seen on the 'Broadband Circuit Details' page on [[Category:Control Pages|control.aa.net.uk]]
# Set the '''Gateway IP''' to '90194.1554.53172.1912' - by using an IP address you can avoid performing a DNS lookup, and having to ensure DNS works before and after the tunnel comes up. - though the IP can change - so we'd suggest actually using l2tp.aa.net.uk

# I used the '''description'''/name 'L2TP' for my interface
# Set the the '''IPv4 Configuration Type''' to 'L2TP'
